PLUM TREES 



The Plum, like the Pear and other finer fruits suc- 

 ceeds best in heavy soil with some clay, and being al- 

 most entirely free from disease, they can be grown very 

 profitably. The finer kinds are excellent dessert fruits, 

 of rich and luscious flavor; for cooking and canning 

 they are unsurpassed.

FELLEMBURG OR ITALIAN PRUNE 



Our most popular Commercial plum. It succeeds under 

 most all climatic and soil conditions. The fruit is 

 dark purple with a dark blue bloom medium to large 

 size, oval, pointed and tapering. The flesh is juicy and 

 delicious and it is very fine for drying and canning. 

 It is fast replacing the German prune in commercial 

 plum orchards. We are glad to say we have a fine lot 

 of one year trees of this splendid variety to offer this 

 year. This plum and the Early Italian prune we are 

 selling make a very profitable combination.
